N. B. It will be seen that (to the rates of duty imposed on 
goods, wares and merchandise in American vessels) an addition 
of 10 per cent, has been made, when the importations are in for¬ 
eign vessels, on all the aforegoing ad valorem and specific arti¬ 
cles, except on teas from China, in that instance alone the act 
makes the specific discrimination. The 3d section of the act pro¬ 
vides that this additional duty of 10 per cent, shall not apply to 
goods, wares and merchandise imported in ships or vessels not 
of the U. States, entitled by treaty, or by any act or acts of 
congress to be entered in the ports of the U. States, on the
